Bladder emptying dysfunction accompanies many neurological diseases. Such bladder dysfunction leads to the risk of serious complications developing which can negatively affect neurorehabilitation. The main method of treating neurogenic bladder emptying dysfunction is periodic catheterization. When periodic catheterization is going to be used, preference should be given to modern lubricant catheters with fixed hydrophilic coating. According to the law of Russian Federation, disabled people can receive such catheters for free as a technical tool of rehabilitation. The article discusses the law aspects of obtaining catheters for periodic catheterization by a disabled person with lower urinary neurogenic dysfunction.
